    843 PD, based on the critrole wiki timeline. Campaign 2 ended in 836, and the Darrington Brigade one shot occured in 826. Which means that in only 17 years stories of The Owlbear have traveled from the southern corner of the Dwendallian Empire in Wildmount to other continents and people such as both Ashton Greymore and Lord Eshteross have heard them.
